"Mother, you... how did you meet this little brother Li?" At this moment, Zhao Zhen next to him suddenly couldn't help asking. He felt that his mother and Li Zhang seemed to be very familiar with him, but they stayed in the palace all year round, and Li Zhang was just a small businessman who opened a store. How could they know each other?

As soon as Zhao Zhen said that, Li Zhang looked at him meaningfully, and then looked at Liu E with a smile. He wanted to hear how Liu E explained what happened to her that day?

Liu E smiled calmly at this moment, then looked at Zhao Zhen with some doting pleasure and said, "Yi'er, you probably don't know yet. Li Zhang is not an outsider. He is actually your cousin!"

"Ah?" Not only Zhao Zhen was shocked, but Li Zhang was also shocked, because although he knew that his aunt was Zhao Zhen's biological mother, most people in the outside world believed that Liu E was his biological mother, and even Zhao Zhen himself thought so. Now Li Zhang's aunt is just Wanyi and has no children under his name. Therefore, even if the relationship between Li Zhang and his son and Li Wanyi was disclosed, Li Zhang could not be called Zhao Zhen's cousin. At most, he could only be regarded as a not very important relative of the foreign country.

"Cousin?" Zhao Zhen also looked at Li Zhang with confusion at this time. He knew his mother's background. He had no other relatives except Liu Mei, but where did this cousin come from?

At this time, Li Zhang also looked at Liu E in confusion, unable to understand what she meant. Could it be that he suddenly discovered his conscience and wanted to tell Zhao Zhen directly about his true life experience and let him recognize his aunt by the way?

"Haha, it's normal for you to not know. Actually, when I was a child, there was an aunt who was only a few years older than me. At that time, we depended on each other, but later we were separated. I have been trying to find my aunt's whereabouts over the years, but I found out that my aunt later married and gave birth to a daughter, my cousin. Later, my cousin married a man named Li Yonghe, and Li Zhang was my cousin's son!" Liu E explained again.

"Dong~" Li Zhang was so scared that he leaned back when he heard this. As a result, the stool was unstable, which made him fall to the ground with his back. Fortunately, he didn't kowtow. He immediately got up and helped the stool up and smiled awkwardly.

"Zhang'er, what's wrong with you? Don't you believe my aunt?" Liu E frowned and asked when she saw Li Zhang's appearance. After all, his reaction was really big.

"No, but I always thought I had no other relatives. Now I suddenly heard that there was an aunt, and I was so excited that I couldn't believe it." Li Zhang shook his head immediately. Although he didn't know why Liu E did this, he knew that it was best to pretend to be stupid at this time and that he would never show any abnormality.

"Haha, this is true. Your father is an incompetent person, and his cousin passed away early. It has been a hard time for you brothers and sisters over the years. Fortunately, I have found you now, and you don't have to live these hard days in the future!" When Liu E said this, she even squeezed out a few tears. She is worthy of being a queen, and even her acting skills are so superb.

"Aunt, I..." Li Zhang also made an excited expression according to the other party's wishes. Now his role is a child who knows nothing, as long as he cooperates with Liu E to act.

While talking, Lu Wu and Li Yonghe finally arrived here. When they saw Li Zhang and Liu E crying at the store, and Zhao Zhen, who looked confused, they were both stunned. They couldn't figure out what the situation was now?

"Greetings to Madam!" Although Lu Wu couldn't figure out the situation, he still went forward to salute. Li Yonghe also followed behind timidly, not even daring to look at Liu E.

"Well, Zhang'er and I have recognized each other just now. His mother is my cousin who has been separated for many years. In short, he is also my cousin. After a while, I will announce his identity. You two will also have rewards!" Liu E nodded at this time, and then said to Lu Wu and the others with a majestic expression.

As soon as Liu E said that, Lu Wu stood up and stared at him, his eyes full of disbelief, while Li Yonghe behind him was like a sieve, his legs were trembling and could hardly stand. His empty eyes were staring at the ground, and his face was full of fear.

"Xiao Wu, Li Zhang is my cousin's son. Thanks to you, I was able to find him!" Liu E stared at Lu Wu without showing any weakness. Although her relationship with Lu Wu was unusual, she would never retreat when it came to her own interests.

"Madam, you..." Lu Wu finally lost under Liu E's gaze. Finally, his lips trembled and wanted to say something, but because he was too excited, he couldn't say anything.

"Okay, you have worked hard all these years. After Li Zhang's identity was announced, I will arrange a good place for you. In addition, there are other related people, and I will never treat her badly!" When Liu E said the last word "her", she also deliberately emphasized her tone, as if she was meaningful.

When Lu Wu heard Liu E's last word "her", he also showed a complicated look on his face, and finally nodded and said, "I understand, thank you madam!"

"Li Yonghe, although you are my brother-in-law, you have not taken good care of your cousin, which has caused her to die early and not take good care of her two children. However, for the sake of my cousin, I will not make things difficult for you. I will also make arrangements for you in the future. I hope you can reform and not let me down again!" Liu E looked at Li Yonghe and said again.

"Yes..., villain... villain obeys the order!" Li Yonghe replied tremblingly. He seemed to be extremely afraid of Liu E, and did not show any expression of happiness because Liu E recognized him as her brother-in-law.

Seeing that Lu Wu and Li Yonghe understood what they meant, Liu E nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and reminded Li Zhang: "Zhang'er, I'll make some arrangements when I go back. Someone will pick you up in a few days. As for my identity, I'll know it in the future!"

After Liu E finished speaking, she ignored Lu Wu and Li Yonghe. She pulled Zhao Zhen and said goodbye to Li Zhang. Then the group left the store, and only Li Zhang and his son and Lu Wu were left in the store.

"Brother Wu, she...she..." After Liu E left, Li Yonghe seemed to have some courage and asked Lu Wu with excitement.

"Dalang, go to the backyard first. Your father and I have something to discuss!" However, before Li Yonghe could say it, he was interrupted by Lu Wu. He seemed to not want Li Zhang to know too much.

"Uncle Wu, I have to hide anything from me. I am already an adult!" Li Zhang deliberately made a dissatisfied expression when he saw this. Although he knew everything, he had to pretend to know nothing in front of Liu E, Lu Wu, Li Yonghe and others. This was actually a very painful thing.

"Even the hair is not growing, what an adult, go quickly!" Lu Wu said with a stern face at this time. He is the kind of traditional big man, and women and children have no human rights in his eyes.

Seeing this, Li Zhang could only shake his head helplessly, then turned around and went to the backyard, then found a place to sit down, and soon fell into deep thought.

Liu E was obviously lying. She had nothing to do with Li Zhang, but she regarded Li Zhang as her nephew. Li Zhang couldn't figure out the purpose of this at first, but at this time she vaguely guessed some.

"Is it a bit too unauthentic for her to do this? It's fine if she snatched her son. Now she even snatched her nephew. It's my fault for being so good. No wonder she was moved!" Li Zhang suddenly sighed and whispered.

Although Li Zhang's words are somewhat narcissistic, they are also true. The original history is not like this. However, because of Li Zhang's arrival, Liu E actually favored her. In addition, Liu E's identity changed Li Zhang's appearance and forcibly recognize him as her relative. This was just a matter of her. Therefore, Li Zhang's fate changed like this.

I don’t know what Lu Wu and Li Yonghe discussed in the shop in front? Anyway, Li Zhang was kicked out until noon when he wanted to deliver food to them. Finally, the two of them came out with exhaustion on their faces. However, looking at their appearance, they probably had accepted this matter. After all, they were the queen, and they could decide the life and death of others with just a word. Even if Lu Wu was not afraid, Li Yonghe would not have the courage to resist.

At the same time, Liu E and Zhao Zhen also returned to the palace, but Zhao Zhen was still a little confused at this time. Finally, after enduring for a long time, he finally asked, "Empress, is that Li Zhang really my cousin?"

Zhao Zhen was raised by Liu E and Concubine Yang Shufei, and Concubine Yang was his adoptive mother. Therefore, in order to distinguish, Zhao Zhen usually called Liu E the eldest lady and Concubine Yang Shufei the young lady.

"Of course, you also know that Wei Niang has few relatives, so naturally she will not recognize her relatives randomly. In this world, besides you and your father, I only have one relative, my aunt. Unfortunately, she passed away early. Fortunately, she still has such blood as Li Zhang." Liu E sighed at this time and said with a heavy expression.

After all, Zhao Zhen was young and had a simple mind. He didn't expect his mother to lie to him. He nodded heavily and said, "I understand. I didn't react just now, but he didn't even call me. When I see my cousin next time, I must treat him with courtesy and never treat my mother's relatives unfairly!"

When Liu E heard his son's words, she also showed a look of relief. She held Zhao Zhen's hand and chatted for a while before urging him to go back to study. After Zhao Zhen left, Liu E's face showed a mysterious smile.

"Empress, isn't it a bit too sudden for you to do this? If Li Zhang knows the truth, he might turn against you in the future?" Just as Zhao Zhen left, a large eunuch quietly approached Liu E and whispered. This eunuch was Liu E's most beloved Luo Chongxun. He had always been with him and Lu Wu before. Just now, when Liu E and his son were in the store, he had been serving by his side.

"The truth? Li Yonghe is a timid man, and he has been scared out of his courage. Now that I have expressed his attitude, he will never dare to talk nonsense. As for Xiao Wu, I know his temper, and he will never betray me!" Liu E smiled confidently.
